All honey has some natural antibacterial property produced by hydrogen peroxide however Manuka honey is well known for its unique properties and it has been used by the New Zealand Maori people for thousands of years.

Dr Peter Molan, head of the New Zealand honey research center at Waikato University discovered that honey harvested from the nectar of Manuka has a special and unique antibacterial known internationally as non-peroxide activity (NPA). This form of activity is stable when diluted or exposed to heat, light, saliva and blood enzymes. Over 300 honeys have been tested around the world and Manuka is the only one that produces non-peroxide activity.

The Natural antibacterial activity in Manuka honey supports natural healing of wounds when applied to the skin. Taken orally it will help to soothe the digestive tract, sore throats and improves overall gut health.
